THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: SATURDAY; JA 1873. UARY 25, . THE STORM KING. A Gradual Victory Being' Obtained Over His Gusty €ohorts, Herculean Efforts to Keep the Street _Car Tracks in Ruaning Order. The Various Stecam Railway Routes Open to Travel =~ Once More. The Storm Throughout the Country. ‘ ) CHICAGO. e 7The storm of Thursday brought unntterable wos upon the misguided persons who had ven- tured down tosn lato on Thursday night, zad tallen a prey to the 'bus drivera who remaired ot bome, and miesed the few cars that human exertions coupled with equine motive power had retained in use upon the tracks. As stated in Taz TpUNE yesterday, the Superintendents of the thres roads had continmed to run plows through the biinding storm, much to the disgust of the drivers, and had -succesded in clearing a comfortsble roadway for the 'bus drivers to squabble over, and fill up. It was the sovorest storm that has visited the city for sears, and geve the car lines “considerable trouble, The howling blast drifted the snow into fearful and fantastic shapes just where au absence of it would have been ecpecially ac- ceptable. It buried the iron tracks beneath more inches than was profitable to either public or company ; and s fast as tho latter clesred it : away for the 'bus drivers and the farmer, the wind and the 'bus drivers again consigned the mils 1o their foky tomb. Honce .much hard work for man snd beast; much undesirable walking, and an unpardonable increese in the utterauce of improper speeches. THE SOUTH SIDE CARS ; wera kept running till a very late hour on Thurs- 3 day night. The new Buperintendent, Mg Bolmes, - commenced & vigorous campaign against the elements at an early hour inthe afternoon, and, when day broke yester- day morning, it found him covered with snow, and still hard et work The perpetus! use of the snow plow had been of great eorvice in clesning tho track on State streét as far as Twenty-ninth strect; Indians and Archer avonues to tho terminus. Cottage Grove avenuse could not be kept decently clean. The howling gale insisted on concentrating its efforta upon this single thoroughfare, to harass and annpy the workinen. On Stote street, too, ‘between Twenty-ninth and Thirty-firat streets, owing to some occnlt evil infiuence in that neighborhood, “possibly, the fine anow collected in enormons drifts, and the snow plow conld not be forced through it with six horses. The at- tempt to clear it with this machine was, thersfore, abandoned, and an army of Inborere kepé at work ‘with shovels all night. The same unpleasant ne~ censity kept a force of men sctively employed on the Stock Yards ear track. Atnoon, yesterdsy, cars ran through to the State street terminus and an hour later wendod their way at not very long in tervals to the Stock Yards, thus illustrating the indefatigable industry of the gentlemen who might reasonably have prayed that his accession i fothe Buperintendency be not in the wintor. i There are twenty miles of track on the South ide, and, with » galo of wind nd an uninter~ rupted fall of snow, the task of keeping this dis~ tanco clear is one of po mean diffi- culty. Yesterday afternoon . the _lines were all in active operation, though, as double teams were nece: to draw the cars over the heavy tracks, and & number of horses were re- quired for the plows, scarcely more than half the number of cars wore running. Tho Twenty- wocond street and Union Park, or * cross-town” cars were not in use, tho ison street track being too heavy for them. The Iabor of clear~ ing the enow away, during the prevalenco of a siorm such as that of %L'hnrmfny, smonnts, as Mr. Hennesey, suggests, to something n littls less than heroism, and the men really labored with upfiagging fidelity. The horses who have warked two nights and one day are deserving of a proportionate meed of recognition. ON_THE WEST SIDE. The West Side Railrord Company, after an ex- i co of snow-storms, such as that which ren- ored them useless for a week two years ago, determined not to be caught x| in the same nncomfortable predicament. They accordingly, inthe parson of the Assisfant Superintendent, Eud dne heed to the coming storm, and, taking alf cars off, squipped half a dozen snow- { i i plows, and kept them in an incipient stage of H perpetuzl motion. Three plows wore Working s on on street, drawn by six horses o o plow, and cars were run on that thoroughfare H until' 11 o'clock. The plows wersrun at inter- : ~vals all night, and in the morning, though “doubled up,”’ the cara were running on the min thoroughfares on ten-minuto time, while 4 on Milwaukee avenae, Clinton, Jefferson, and Van Buren streots, all tho cars that could be dravn were in constant use.' The enow yesterday con- . tinued to fall and interfere with the travel, but &k not to any disagreesble extent. H OX THE NORTH SIDE the snow drifted fearfully on some of the less important routes, snd travel upon them was, therefore, tomporarily muspended. The' tracks were sl cleared by morning, and operations ‘promptly resumed. . THB STEAX RAILWAYS.

NEWw Onuesss, Jen. 9°.—~The following is Gov- ernor AicEpery’s mesi. ¢ ¢ T the Senate and Houscof Representatives of ths State Loufsiuna : Tho extracrdinary decision rendered by & majority of the Supreme Court yesterdey, in the Returning Board cate, in my judgment, does not ofiect in the Jeast degres thegreat political question fnvolved in our judicial troubles, and now sngaging the profound atten- o of the United Baates, Tho question of our diiculty has peesed eyond 0 Gourte, 1t is of o purely political charscter, which must be defluitcly determined by the ‘political nad leginlsiive departments of 'the General Government, There aro two S'ate Governments in Loulsizna, cxercizing the political functions of Gov- ernment, iad it is not competent for any Court, either State or Federal, to determino which is tho legltimat Government. TFhat question czn slone be determincd by Congress, and no decition by a Court 28 to what was or was not a legal Returning Board can effect the atatus of ono or tho other of these Btate Gov- ernments, The controversy now involves the inquiry mnow being vigorously prosecuted by Canj 8 which is 1ho legal Government, and whether not there ia s legal Stzte Government in Louisiana, or wEetler there is 3 Government, Republican in form in the Siate, and which Governmient is founded and erected_on *official and legal returns of the late election ; and these are questions ulono compatert for Congress to decide, snd until they are definitely settled by that power thero is 10 cnd to the contest in this State. The great case of TLoulsiana has paesed beyond tho jurisdiction of the Courts under the theors and practice of - our Govern- ment, In o controversy such as we have in Loulsiana no other power can intervene for a settlemont and so- lotion of our troubles othor than that of tho ngress _ of tho TUnited' States, which under the Federal Constitution, is bound to gusrantee to overy State In tho Unfon a government republican in form. 1 therefore refterats the recommendation contained in my previous messzze, of the assumption and exer- clao, 06 far 5 practicable on onr part, of all the powers of the Government, The real question isnot what tha Wharton Board or Lynch Board bao dealared as the ro- cult of tho election, but what are the official returny of 1be_election, a8 they come fresh and offi- clally from the Commissioners of Election,® determin- ing jn on aathentic, ofiicial shaps who waa elected, ho wzs not elected to office, and this_great question 18 untouched by the decisionreferred to, fer it was not, nor could be, befors the Court in the suit between the’ two returning Boards, and as tbe Congresa hng now before them the primary and only oficial evi- dence of thaelection, it is présumed that Congress, in due exerciso of its jurisdiction, will look nltimately and rigidly into these cvidences, upon which alono can any legal State Government be established and orga- nized in this Sute, In addition o this, no Court in the State of Louisians, or elsowhero can decide upon the qualifications of the members of the Legislature, Under our Constitution, the Legialaturo is the sols judge of the qualifications of its own members, and any interference or intervention by any Court in this direction ia stmple and sheor usurpation, (Signed) Jom MoESERT, —— e . KANSAS, Special Despateh to The Chicago Tribune. - ToPERA, Jau. 24.—There is more excitement over the Senatorial contest to-night than over. Tho anti-Pomeroy caucus was attended ' by seventy-four membors of the Legislature, and all the opposition candidates. Harmony and en- thusiasm prevailed. Several speeches were made sgainst Pomeroy. Itzeems thata combination of the Kanens delegation elect to the Lower House of Congress to oppose Pomeroy was effected to-day, hence their presence in the caucus. - Colonel Cobb's spcech was par- ticnlarly scathing. He said, smong other things, things that bo bolieved in, and. should work for, a purer end better order of things in Kensas, and should renew his pledge to the people of the State that no man should kmowingly Gecure his support for any piaco of irust, under the Gov- ernment, a8 a reward for his vote in electing any man to office. Judge Lowe and Colonel Phillips fully indorsed his views. - The four candidates prozent. substantially agreod -that tho man re- coiving the largest number of votes on the firat ballot 1n tho Logislature should receive the ac- tivo support of tho other candiates, B ~ Senator Pomeroy, to-night, clzims that Phil- lips was entrapped into the caucus by a promise of the other candidates withdrawing in his favor, and that the oppoeition will now " throw him overboard, since ho has committed ‘himself to anti-Pomeroy principles. - - - Judge Lowe said the Republicen party was competent to parify itself withont -tho aid of Democrats and Liberals. The-remark cansed several Liberals toleave the caucus. ) ‘The open warfare of the Congressman-slect upon the Administration” Senstor causes con- stemation in office-holding circles.
